Connecting with Nature: Mass Audubon


Going to Mass Audubon, to Mama,  it is enjoyable and relaxing; to Lex, it is fun; to Dada, it is an obligation; to me, it is intimidating, without flat concrete path and without stroller. I cried in front of the gate of Broadmoor, natick, hoping that either Dada or Mama would pick me up and hold me. However, I couldn't beat Dada's stubbornness and finally I gave up.

Along the main trail, I saw lotus leaves and flowers, bridges, roots above the ground, and I heard Lex's laugh. I started to like it.

 
 
 
 
 
Dada hold my hands to assist me to walk on big rocks. It was hard, I almost tripped. Luckily, I had a cookie in one of my hands to keep me balanced.

 
 
 
 

What? Another Mass Audubon in the same month! Is Mama crazy!

This time, we went to Drumlin Farm in Lincoln. Actually, this mass Audubon site is Ada friendly since a stroller can be used. We met Cindy's family there.  Cindy and Lex started their preschool career at FACE on the same day. After one year, Mom switched Lex to my school. During this one year, Cindy's Dad helped to pick up Lex several times in heavy snowy days when Mom couldn't make it on time. Mama initiated the mass Audubon activity with Cindy's family, so Lex and Cindy can spend some time together again. Mama also invited them to come over to our house for dinner after Drumlin Farm.

In Drumlin Farm, first we rode on a hayride.


Then, we visited horses, cows, sheep, chickens, and rabbits.

Cindy and Lex went on a discovery trial.



Aren't these wild flowers beautiful?!




Mass Audubon, we love you.
